If you have been listening to my podcast for a while, you know by now that I am a pack rat. I think I have saved almost every interview I have ever done. The only ones I don’t have are the ones I lost in a flood in 1976 during an ice storm. Therefore I have some really weird conversations in my closet. Here is one with Mr. Whipple. He was the guy who did the very popular Charmin bathroom tissue commercials. He’ll give you that famous line and explain how it all happened.
